Question by DNP · Jul 28, 2012 at 06:46 PM · updateguitextint

Updating an interger in a GUIText

Hey so im having a little problem with this code.

 var gText1: GUIText;
 var gText2: GUIText;
 var gameHolder : GameObject;
 var flashlightObj : Light;
 
 function Update(){
  gText1.text = gameHolder.GetComponent(NewerGameScript).totalNotebooks;
  
  gText2.text = flashlightObj.GetComponent(FlashlightBattery).batteryLife;
 }

When i use this script it gives me an error that says "Cannot convert 'int' to 'String'." so how can i show an interger on a string?

cast it to string

gText1.text = gameHolder.GetComponent(NewerGameScript).totalNotebooks.ToString();
gText2.text = flashlightObj.GetComponent(FlashlightBattery).batteryLife.ToString();
